Mechanical Engineering is one of the broadest of the engineering disciplines and will offer you a wide choice of options in industry. The IMechE accredited MEng degree courses are aimed at the most ambitious of students who wish to develop highflying careers within different industrial sectors and to become the future leaders of industry in companies concerned with Mechanical Engineering. On completion of these courses, students should have acquired a substantial technical depth in core engineering science and engineering design skills, have a good breadth in related disciplines and have developed highly effective communication and leadership skills. The MEng courses are the preferred route to achieving Chartered Engineer status. This course of four academic years allows high calibre students to develop their understanding of the role of Mechanical Engineering in the industrial context, over and beyond that of the BEng courses. The first two years are common to the BEng structure and provide you with engineering science core skills, combined with engineering design and computational modules. The application of engineering science and the solution of industrial problems is a strong theme throughout the courses. This is practised within the 2nd year Industrial Based Design Project. In the third and fourth academic years, the MEng courses provide enhanced opportunities to study your chosen specialist subjects in depth. In addition, MEng students follow extra modules in practical business management, design and microprocessor control systems, and are offered the chance to study a European language.
